Doing a search on TestBag is
easy. All Topics/Subtopics are displayed in a ‘Tree
Structure’ in a hierarchical mode. ( Place a small correct image
in tree structure)

Select Topic / subtopic
you propose to create test on by clicking the topic/subtopic

The selected topic
will be displayed on top of ‘Create Test’
form. The questions relevant to selected topic will
be randomly selected based on your criteria to create
a test for you.

Important
Point

• You can create test
either by selecting a topic / subtopic or by inputting
a correct/relevant keyword. Both the options cannot
be used simultaneously.

•As questions are arranged in hierarchical manner,
the number of questions associated with top of hierarchy
will always be more than ‘branches’ .
For example ‘Biology’ will have more questions
associated with it than ‘Cell Biology’
(which is subtopic to ‘Biology’) and ‘Cell
Biology’ will have more questions than ‘Biomolecules’
(which is a subtopic to ‘Cell Biology’)
and associated keyword ‘Lipids’ will have
lesser questions than ‘Biomolecules’

Input Keywords :

•
Alternatively you can type a keyword you wish
to create test in the box provided your ‘Create
Test’ Form
• The Keyword
is not case sensitive. It will give same result in
upper and lower case
• However Keyword
spelling should be correct

Total Number
of Questions
:

You can input the number of questions you would like your test to be created from. Select a reasonable number of questions your require create a test. Large number of questions in your selection criteria will delay. Keeping this n view we have restricted selection criteria to maximum 100 questions. ( However this restriction is not there in model tests)

Number of
Questions per page:
:

To make your browsing easier, there is a facility to display questions page wise. For example you have selected 100 number of questions and selected criteria of display of 20 questions per page, then the entire test will be created in five pages. You can move between pages.

Level of Question

In TestBag the questions are of four levels - L1, L2, L3 and L4. There can be questions of all four levels /only three levels / only two levels / or single level in a subject/ topic/ subtopic or keyword

In all subjects (except General Topics* and English ) the level of questions meets following criteria

L1 - Questions for students of class IX and X ( Secondary or Matric class)

L4 - Questions for Professionals in their disciplines – bankers, insurers, doctors, chartered accountants etc. In these fields, there are topics which are field specific and are generally not taught in main stream classes (i.e from IX till Graduation). However in cases where main stream topics are also included in professional subjects, TestBag follows usual classification i.e L1, L2, L3 as the case may be for the particular topic/subject . For illustration - In banking questions on topic ‘risk management’ will be of level L4 but in topic ‘Accounting’ the questions will be L1, L2 or L3 as the case may be because ‘Accounting’ is also taught main stream classess

In case of General Topics and English although most of questions are GL1 and few are GL2 but they are not representative of class IXth , Xth., XIth or XIIth. For convenience of users, TestBag has following criteria for level of questions in General Topics and English

GL1 – Questions commonly asked in General Topics and English in competitive exams after schooling such as clerical cadre exams, NDA etc

GL2 – Questions commonly asked in General Topics and English in competitive exams after graduation such as CAT, MAT, Bank PO, IAS etc

Select option ‘Any’ will select questions randomly from all four levels

Kindly Note :- Level of questions in knowledge pool for the subject topic keyword reflect ground realities. For example most of the question in English Grammar will be L1 as grammar is normally taught upto Xth standard only. Questions for Calculus would mainly be L2 or above as most of the Calculus is taught from XIth and XIIth standard onwards. Similarly most of questions on keyword 'Mitochondria' in Cell Biology would be L2 and above and as Mitocohondria is mainly taught in XIth, XIIth and graduation. Again questions on subject topics or keyword which are taught in graduation would be L3. As such searching questions on these topics in L1 or L2 will give Nil results.

How to Simulate Test :

Simulating a
Test in TestBag is very Easy

All Test are classified Main Category wise. Each
main category represents a group of exams.

Each
subcategory is further classified into Test Category.
Each Test
Category represents subject wise tests. For example

Subcategory

Test Category

All India Engineering/Architecture
Examination

AIEEE Physics Tests
AIEEE Chemistry Tests
AIEEE Maths Tests

Each
Test Category is further classified into Test
Patterns. Each
Test Pattern is classified either year wise or number
wise. The year represents the
Memory based test pattern for exam in said year
. If test pattern is number
wise it represents a pattern created by experts keeping
previous years patterns in view.
For example

Test Category

Test Pattern

AIEEE Physics Tests

AIEEE 2007
AIEEE 1

In
this case AIEEE PHYSICS 2007 represents memory based
test pattern for
AIEEE PHYSICS exam in year 2007 and AIEEE 2007 1 represents
Test pattern
created by experts

Each Test Pattern is detailed as per pattern of
said exam to the level

Every
time on starting test, a new test on the said pattern
with different sets of
questions but on same topics will be available for users
to practice. The test will
have specific time and marks as defined in the pattern

Regular Preparation Help :

1. Study
and concentrate on a subject or topic in the class/tutorial
, jot down important
,points in notes

2. For
example you are a student of 11th class and
have studied Laws of motion in Physics
today . To check yourself on this subtopic

go
to topic, select ‘laws of motion’.

Select
a reasonable number of questions say
20 your require to be tested on (if
you will select unreasonable number
say 1000, the system will take unduly
long. Keeping this in view the maximum
number of questions allowed to be selected
are restricted to 100 at one instance)

For
your convenience select number of questions
you would like to see on each page. You
can toggle between pages.

Select
level of difficulty as ‘medium

Allocate
time in which you wish to complete the
test

Allocate
number of marks you wish for correctly
answered, incorrectly answered or questions
not attempted

Start
Test

Based
on your selection criteria you will have
a test ready to be taken by you

On
completion of test , submit the same and
results will be displayed online

The
results will also be stored in test
history for analysis in future and initiating
steps to improve further with help of
teachers/mentors. In test history we
also propose to provide solutions in
future to some difficult questions for
your perusal.

3.

You
can even select a keyword say ‘Acceleration’
you have studied in ‘laws of motion’
and can create a test to check your
knowledge on acceleration. A list of
keywords subjectwise/topicwise/subtopicwise
is available on subject specific page
‘Physics’ (click link from homepage)
for your help. This list will help you
in understanding few important keywords
in your subtopic and some of them you
may not have studied till now. The difficulty
level for keywords is advisable to be
selected as ‘medium’ . However difficulty
level ‘any’ would provide wider choice
of questions on a keyword.

4.

Alternatively
you can select topic ‘ Mechanics’ to
which subtopic ‘laws of motion’ belongs
and you can create test on all subtopics
of mechanics which you may have studied
in a month. Similarly you can test yourself
on subject the subject ‘Physics’ or
on ‘Science’ to which subject Physics,
Chemistry, biology etc belong and so
on.

5.

Every time
your create a test, the chances are
that you will get different set of questions
on same topic based on random selection.
There will more questions on Physics,
lesser in a topic in physics, further
lesser in a subtopic and fewer questions
on keyword selection. Keyword selection
can also select questions from different
topics or subjects based on commonality
of keywords in such topics or subjects.

6.

We
shall be updating/adding questions regularly.
We have a process on online contribution
from different contributors to enrich
our database. The questions are edited
at our end before making them available
for your use.

7.

Although
we have taken care to as accurate as
possible but feedback (link available
on homepage) from you would be of great
help. You can give us a general feedback
or can advise us to correct a question/answer
in which there may have been inadvertent
mistake. (there are separate links for
this on homepage)
